New York City is using emojis to teach sex ed

New York City's Health and Hospitals agency is trying to appeal to younger adults and adolescents about the importance of safe sex using their own language, as Broadly reports.

A new campaign focusing on clever emojis reminding people to seek advice and education about safe sexual practices is making its way around the city. A representative from NYC Health and Hospitals told The New York Times that they wanted to use "all communication possible to get out healthy, positive messages about sex and sexuality."
